    New Rear Gears, Whine

    I had a drag shop build me a new 9" rear end and swap it into my 69 coupe. With new axles, tracklock and 3.51 gears. It whined for quite awhile at highway speeds. I think its a break in period thing.

    Electrical Running Voltage Too Low 69 Coupe?

    That A and F terminal thing sounds neat, but i have since put in a new alternator and its doing the same thing so Im gonna focus on the voltage regulator next, see if i can test voltage in front and behind the voltage regulator or just replace the damn thing.

    Electrical Running Voltage Too Low 69 Coupe?

    Finally got the new alternator installed on the 69 today cause it was so nice out, its still only reading 12.85 on the volt meter while running. Thats after I waited several minutes, it kept creeping up from 12.69 to 12.85 VERY slowly. But that still cant be right. I dont remember it ever...

    Suspension 69 front and rear suspension issues

    Ive always wondered if simply installing 1 inch drop front springs will look good on my 69 coupe? Is that all that is needed? Just a set of springs? I have new aftermarket rear springs and new standard part store shocks/struts all around but when I have people in the back seat and hit a bump...

    66 vert seat bracket question

    Ive got a friend with a 66 vert and he is a tall guy and is wondering if its possible to get his seats to go back any farther. Are there bolt on aftermarket brackets or brackets from other years that go back farther than the 66 that will bolt right in to the floor and the seats? Thanks,

    C4 shift behavior

    Its never bothered me but got curious about it. 69 Coupe 351W, C4 auto. C4 is rebuilt with less than 3k mi. Its only a summer, weekend driver. Sometimes when I put it in drive or reverse, it can take up to 5 seconds for it to engage. It doesnt do it all the time. Just sometimes. Could it be...
